Netflix has greenlit a straight-to-series spy thriller titled A Spy in the Blood, reuniting Stranger Things stars Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour in a father-daughter espionage role. The series comes from Adolescence creator Jack Thorne and prestige studio A24, and is loosely based on Paul Warner's debut novel of the same name. In the show, Harbour plays a disgraced FBI agent turned security expert who is drawn back into espionage when his estranged daughter, played by Brown, vanishes on a mission. Brown teased the project on a podcast this week, while Harbour recently mentioned plans for future collaborations with Brown. The pair spent ten years together on Stranger Things, which concluded in December 2025. Production is expected to begin later this year, with a premiere targeted for late 2027. Netflix exec Jinny Howe praised Thorne's storytelling ability and the actors' on-screen chemistry.
